The 2013 Brisbane Broncos season was the 26th in the club 's history. Coached by Anthony Griffin and captained by Sam Thaiday , they competed in the NRL 's 2013 Telstra Premiership . Brisbane finished the regular season in 12th (out of 16), thus failing to qualify for the finals for the first time since 2010.
